Just today I found out that my compile has this:

And so my Anti-malware removed it, and required reboot of my PC to finish cleaning.

Never seen that happened to a compile that I compiled before.

Send it to them for analysis so they can whitelist it. Don't forget to mention it's open source so they can actually check the source as well.

I suppose it's possible that your version has been infected after you built it.

Also, what file did it report as malware?

[crawky]

I had a file flagged by Malwarebytes (version 3.0.6.1469). The file was flaggged as soon as I tried to run MQ2
Threat: Backdoor.Industroyer.Generic
File: MQ2-20170615\RELEASE\MQ2MAIN.DLL

It's a false positive, report it to them.

What's weird is that after the offending MQ2Main file and its source were removed by the antivirus, the strange power reading for my computer battery is back to 100%. It was at 81% plugging but not charging before the malware was quarantined.

Backdoor.Industroyer.Generic

Seems like my comp slows down during this past couple of weeks. But after I removed this malware, and rebooted, the comp is faster now and not bogged down every time running web browsers and folders.

The placebo effect is a hell of a thing.

MQ is virus free so...
